Baldwin was embraced by critics for her performance as Irish lass Sharon in the current Broadway revival of Finian's Rainbow at the St. James Theatre.

Her turn at Feinstein's is called Let's See What Happens and draws from her recent debut album of the same name, on the PS Classics label. The disc features songs by composer Burton Lane and lyricist E.Y. Yip Harburg — songs they wrote together and with other writers.

Rob Berman, music supervisor and conductor of Finian's Rainbow (who also music-directed Baldwin's album), is the evening's musical director and pianist. They will be joined by Steve Kenyon on woodwind, Brian Koonin on guitar, Lou Bruno on bass, Antoine Silverman on violin.

Let's See What Happens admission ranges $50.08-$71.86. Feinstein's at Loews Regency is at 540 Park Avenue at 61st Street.

Baldwin told Playbill.com in June, "I had the extraordinary good fortune to star in Finian's Rainbow this spring [in the Encores! concert series] and fell in love with Burton Lane and Yip Harburg all over again. I have such a strong, personal connection to their work — I've loved Burton Lane's beautiful melodies for years and am still discovering Yip Harburg lyrics that delight me. I felt like they'd be the perfect companions as I embark on my first solo album."
